Due to continuous growth of production volume, R&P Polyplastic has launched a programme to update its warehouse equipment. The company purchased 10 Komatsu forklift loaders, exceeding 10 million Russian Rubles (~€137,000).

At the beginning of March, the vehicles were delivered to the R&P Polyplastic production plant in Engels where they will be used.

As well as purchasing new equipment, some changes were also added to the motivation programme of warehouse employees.

Director General of R&P Polyplastic Alexander Pavlov said: “This year we decided to focus on the effectiveness of moving finished products and raw materials. The salary of each employee directly depends on the quality of performed work.”

The company is planning to continue upgrading its inventory of equipment and improve the efficiency of its warehousing services.
